The latest data center processors built by Intel offers an array of platform feature innovations, delivering significant performance increases across key workloads. AI is one of the niche areas where the processor shows promise. The AI-powered processor delivers 2.2x higherdeep learning training and inference compared to the previous generation. Besides, it also furnishes and 113x deep learning performance gains compared to a 3-year-old non-optimized server system when combined with software optimizations, speeding delivery of AI-fueled services.

This is not all, from a networking perspective, the processor can deliver up to 2.5x increased IPSec forwarding rate for key networkingapplications compared to previous generation. The processor makes use of IntelQuickAssist andDPDK for addressing networking requirements. For HPC, the processor provides up to a 2x FLOPs/clock improvement with Intel AVX-512 as well as integrated Intel Omni-Path Architecture ports. This helps in providing delivering improved compute capability, I/O flexibility, and memory bandwidth.

Besides, the organization also launchedIntel Select Solutions. This offering aims to simplify and speed the deployment ofdata center and network infrastructure. The company is investing significantly towards Intel Builders ecosystem collaborations. This will help in delivering a plethora of Intel verified configurations to the market, enabling customers to speed return on investment in Intel Xeon Scalable processor.
